Football Penn State vs Maryland Weekly Thread

James Franklin doesn't appear to be too worried about Penn State's blocked punt or extra point. Went as far as calling the extra point being blocked a fluke (referenced how Penn State rarely allows that to happen).
 
Franklin was asked about the potential of playing in the Big Ten title game.

Acknowledged that it's a possibility but is focusing on Maryland right now. Has a lot of respect for the Terps and is excited about the opportunities potentially afterward but is focused on Maryland right now.
 
- Penn State will also be without DT Alonzo Ford whose out with a long-term injury. Terrible for Ford after missing all of last season with an injury as well

- Franklin thinks Rucci has been playing well. They'll have JB Nelson's role increase as well going forward. Nelson has been dealing with some lingering injuries. Expect increased roles from Cousins, Williams, and Boyer.

- Believes SIngleton is getting close to 100% and that Penn State needs him to get there.
